Client more useful in 19 of 19 people found this review helpful. Happy so far Stinkbug LHB536 LG is a complex system for a good price. The price will probably fall. So if you can wait to buy, keep an eye on the prize. The sound is good and there are wireless speakers, but speakers are easy to connect. The wireless connection is ideal for streaming video from Netflix. I love this feature. If you have set-top box via the HDMI cable connects the box to an HDMI input on the system by LG. So you can connect the HDMI output from an HDMI input on the LG TV. You do not have a digital optical out cable if you connect via HDMI. The guidance of the system to configure Stink, but you can get a good support by calling their support line. Advantages: price, sound, image, wifi streaming video if you subscribe to Netflix, Vudu, etc. Cinemax, I connect POD, Blu-ray DVDs. Good telephone support Disadvantages: The remote is not a learning remote, so there is no switch on the device to your TV or cable box manual for information on my review of 18 April 2011 Update. LG has updated the software on this system and includes additional premium and Amazon VOD applications. I have the LG to my Mac computer in the network and I can play my music and pictures files on my TV. NICE! Amazon now has the best price on the system under $ 400.00. Buy it! 16 of 16 people found the following review helpful. A lot of bang for the buck I normally would have ponied D. Goolsby to a real AV receiver and speaker setup, but my biggest problem was that I did not have space to fit a big Onkyo receiver. And in that little room I'm in, the little 5.1 system I had decided to fine at the moment, so I look around and see what I could get, which was smaller in size. Almost all of my options had Blu-Ray with them, I do not really need because I have a PS3, but I decided, what the hell I have to buy this mainly due to an HDMI 5.1 system, that my old equipment was using optical cables. In addition, the new DD and DTS ® is a fix for me and for all it's cheaper than buying a real AV receiver + speakers. I'm pretty impressed with this very system, it has a lot of bang for the buck. Be to start with, that my BD player is now standard, simply because it runs at startup, and a film is much faster than going through the PS3. Coupled with an HDMI switch, I have a total of 5 devices on my DVR, a PS3, Xbox 360, HTPC and HD-DVD player. If you do not have any kind of a box or HTPC for playing video and / or streaming, this device will care for your needs. It plays MKVs and Avis fine from a network or USB device, including music files, has an app for online radio streaming, which I love, and an update last week, she added Amazon Instant Video playback, which is good for my free Amazon Prime videos In the end, I still use my HTPC for my videos to play, because it gives me more features and options, but it's good as a backup and I still use it for my first online Streaming Playback. The online resource is missing, is Hulu. There are Netflix, Vudu, and Amazon. (Among others) I have not tried the built-in radio because the stations I listen I listen via online streaming app, but this unit has an AM receiver, unlike most other devices out there, so if you want your sport Radio / news / talk stations, you have access. I was impressed with the LG SW updates, there was an update already when I pulled the device out of the box two or three weeks ago and an update last week that a number of functions, which is still to make things better added It comes with an iPod / iPhone dock, I tried my iPod, but I tested my iPhone 4 and plays back ok. Unfortunately, all reproduction is controlled from the player himself, not the LG. You want to mess with the sound modes, because I use Natural Plus TV (two channels of audio mixes to the file.
